Theory About Firelink Shrine

[ManWithoutADollar]

After looking at images, and from replaying Dark Souls 1, I realized that Firelink Shrine in DS1 looks incredibly similar to the Firelink Shrine in DS3 (if the name stays the same).

So maybe... DS3 is placed far before the events of DS1, and the Firelink Shrine gets destroyed after you bring back all of the Lords of Cinder (or whatever), and maybe Lord Gwyn is you from DS3, just aged and gone mad.

Put these two images side by side and tell me what you think:

Also, inside the DS3 Firelink Shrine (where the bonfire is placed) looks like the same spot as in DS1:

Not to mention there is word of a graveyard in DS3 Firelink Shrine, similar to the graveyard in the back of DS1 Firelink Shrine.

So...

Do you guys think that Firelink Shrine, as glorious as it looks in DS3, could crumble and turn into the Firelink Shrine we know of in DS1?

No. Considering there is tons of armors and weapons that were in DS2 are in DS3 like Faarm Set. But, there could be the possibility that it maybe a prequel.

I want to think that it is a sequel to DS2 but what you say kind of makes sence.
Remember that time is complicated...
